Arizona Free Divorce Records Available Online

By Ben Kingsley


Documents of a Divorce in Arizona are maintained at a specific county where the divorce was made final. If you want to get your hands on a divorce document but do now know which county it is stored, you can visit the Arizona Vital Records Office so they can help you find the right county. If you place a request personally at a specific county Clerk of Court, you will get the documents in an hour or two. You may also submit your request by mail or fax but expect that results will be given to you in two to three weeks time.

It is important that you get a copy of a divorce file especially if it is your own record and you wish to go through marriage again at a later time in your life. A Clerk of Court is also the office in-charge of issuing a marriage license and they will not give it to you if they find out that you have been involved in another marriage in the past unless you provide a divorce file to prove that your previous marriage is legally over. And when you find the person that you will marry, make sure that they do not have any pending divorce case so that you would not have any troubles with the law. You can do the process of checking their marital history secretly so that you cannot cause discomfort to your future partner.

To search for a divorce record, it is vital that you can provide a full name and the year and place where the divorce took place. If you can provide additional information, the faster it will be to obtain the records. Make sure that the pieces of information you provide are accurate so that the right record will found.

A complete divorce record comes with a divorce certificate and a divorce decree. In a divorce certificate, you will find the names of the spouses, their address, and the date and location where the divorce transpired. Meanwhile, a divorce decree is composed of details that are considered confidential such as child custody, visitation rights, division of assets and debts, and more. Unless the confidential issues are settled accordingly, the decree will not be issued. A decree is only given to the either of the spouses, their legal representatives, and any individual or party that has the consent of the court to get the documents.

If you want to get the files from another source, there are certain websites that specialized in legally providing them to the public. There are two types of such website: a free website and a paid website. Whether you choose the former or the latter, you will be given at least the basic details of a divorce file. The details are alike what a divorce certificate contains.

Are Divorce Records Public? Yes, they are. Any person can submit a request for the records to the appropriate government office in-charge of maintaining them. A divorce that is granted in a certain county or state is and will be accepted in all the other states. Although they are open to public, there are laws that protect the privacy of the owner of the records. The records cannot be used to defame, embarrass, blackmail, and damage the reputation of a person. Anyone caught violating will be punished accordingly.
